In the year of eighteen hundred and ninety six, for a woman at my age to still be living the life of a miss is highly ‘unlady-like’ of me, especially in the heart of the South – Savannah, Georgia. For the most part, my family has me all done up like porcelain doll. Always making sure I am ‘Wedding ready’ as my aunt Martha likes to say. Martha is a kind and noble woman but let me make this very clear those are her words not mine. In my eyes most of what she has to say is redundant. I personally can never tell if the woman is fond of me or thinks I am the spawn of the devil here to fill her daughter‘s head with ideas of a sinful life. Martha speaks to me like she just realized the lemon she bit into is sour. Face always scrunched with nose
*disclaimer: bare with me... the next 5 chapters are crap because i wrote them over a year ago...chapter 19 will be the start of some great shit*
The horse woman who inspired me was my mom. I remember being afraid of horses; their big feet and long teeth. She showed me what it was like to get past that fear, and actually ride. I think if it wasn't for her, I would have never gotten this close to horses, she is one of the best moms in my opinion because she brings me to all these really great courses and in she buys my horse she takes care of my horse she makes sure the horses fed at in like in the trainers it's it's really nice because I know that I couldn't do half of the things she could yet and I hope when I'm older I can be just like her. I am really thankful for the boarding she provides and she's just one of the best moms. Every parents every set of parents house for offs but I
In 2025, I will be twenty-nine years old and hopefully married. I will be married to my significant other of ten years Earnest Palmer III, who is a dentist. I would have been recently graduating with a bachelor’s in Culinary Arts and trying to plan to open my own restaurant, BubbaD’s Eateries. Knowing my big headed husband of mine, I probably had a baby then and trying to have another baby. Hopefully, by then Earnest will get rid of the idea naming our son, King. We will be living in the suburbs near New York City but working in the city. Being a woman with great memory, I probably wrote a memoir about my crazy life and trying to sell it to a publisher. If none of the publishers wants to publish my memoir, I will probably sell it the Lifetime
I woke up to the distant sounds of cows mooing and the rustling of feet while guards switched shifts at the wall. I would’ve gladly been out there keeping lookout, but General Travis keeps saying that 14 is too young to have your life on the line, even though we all knew that simply being there at the fort was putting your life on the line. I slowly sat up and yawned and glanced at the closed window shutters. A small bit of light spilled out onto my cot, dawn was upon the Alamo, and that meant the cattle were
The driving factors for the exploration were New Mexico having silver and riches as well as religious advantages. Spaniards thought that occupying New Mexico would keep their rivals away because they thought there was a water passage. The impact of Spanish exploration on Native Americans was negative. Many tribes endured violence and raids, so some more aggressive tribes would attack first. The Apache’s would go in and kill Spaniards that were trying to settle and in return, Spaniards would have slave raids.
Everyone defines high school as the base of your career, were magnificent teachers providing knowledge to help you exceed in life. But tell me how are we supposed to exceed while having teachers who does not provide enough information for my understanding? My senior year of high school I was placed in a math class with an instructor who goes under the name if Mrs. Power, but rather known as Mrs. Pointless. "Ok class everyone quiet!” are the exact words Mrs. Powers would say before starting class. She made class dull and pointless. By far she is the worst teacher I have had. She had little knowledge of what she was teaching in class, had out dated policies and lastly was extremely rude.
On a personal level, Ms. Davis, my theater teacher, helped me through one of the hardest moments of my life, losing a friend to suicide. She was a literal shoulder to cry on and her words of wisdom are ones that I will never forget. In the theater space, she helped me find my voice and my place as a human and as a director. I never would have gained the passion and drive for the arts if it wasn’t for her leadership and her willingness to allow me the opportunity to work as her assistant director.
In my thirteen years of schooling I have studied under more than fifty teachers, all of which have dropped a coin or two into my academic piggy bank. But, when I think of a person who has had an important influence on my life, one name stands out in my mind more than others: Mrs.Cox. This woman was one of a kind! As both my second and third grade teacher, Mrs.Cox had two full years to fill my head with the wonders of science, math, reading, and writing. Within this time frame she taught me with strategies I had never seen before and ultimately helped me gain an in-depth understanding of the core subjects in a way that made me realize that with unwavering focus and commitment I could master anything I was given.
I’ve learned many things in my English II class here at Infinity ECHS, an example of
“I’ll always remember the good deeds Mrs. Jones did to help get back up on my feet. I used the ten dollars she gave me to buy my blue suede shoes shoes, to slowly become a doctor. I have a good life now, all of it because of what Mrs. Jones did for me when I was a little boy.”
Helping people is something I have always felt like I am supposed to do. The mission and responsibilities of social workers, especially as it is laid out in the Columbia University School of Social Work mission statement, seamlessly aligns with my vision for how to best utilize my experience and passions. Specifically, I hope to use social work to address social justice issues and help empower individuals who cannot advocate for themselves due to societal barriers. Experiences in my personal life and volunteer and work positions have culminated in my decision to pursue a MSW. Knowing that there is a major need for workers in the field of social services, and that my life experiences and interests are aligned with a career attuned to serving individuals, families, and
Many small deaths such as Raymond Howell from mckinney texas and mass murders such as orlando florida's homosexual club shooting have occurred under the influence of guns. Guns have destroyed many lives. These deaths should not have occurred, With stricter gun control these unjustified murders would not have occurred and affect the lives of families. Gun control in America should be more restrictive because women will feel more protected from abusers, lower criminals with guns, unjustified gun deaths.
There are a number of teachers that I could mention in my journal today, there is Miss Lamb, who helped referred me to the Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) program. Mrs. Child, my third grade teacher who I still have lunch with from time to time to discuss literature. Even Mr. Ford, who would lend me books from his daughter’s personal library because we had the same taste in literature and he knew how much I loved to read. Throughout my years as a student, I have had the honor of being taught by many great educators. However, the most influential educator I have had in my life is the one who not only helped jumpstart my career as a student, but also offered me my first job, and that is my kindergarten teacher Mrs. Walker.
Nothing bad ever happened to Jane. Looking from the outside in she had the perfect life and that's what drew me to her. I’d been watching from afar for almost a year now. I even went through the trouble of starting my career as a teacher over at a new high school so I could get a closer look into her life.
I don't believe allowing woman to hold a position of power such as a cardinal within the Catholic Church or rabbi diminishes the power of these positions or the religion. To say that only a man can tell us about God is ridiculous. To tell me only a man can hold a high position in the church offends me. I don't believe gender should play a part in these religious positions of power.
